Andrew Jackson's lengthy farewell... Van Buren's inaugural address...



Item # 693487

March 16, 1837

VERMONT CHRONICLE, Windsor, March 16, 1837  

* Martin Van Buren inauguration
* Andrew Jackson farewell address


Half of page 2 and most of page 3 are taken up with the: "Farewell Address Of Andrew Jackson, to the People of the United States" in which he reiterates his policies one final time. He appeals to the different regions of the country to place their loyalty to the Union above all else. He condemns monopolies, speculation and paper currency.
Of greater significance--although dramatically shorter--is the: "Inaugural Address" of Martin Van Buren as President, which immediately follows Jackson's farewell.
Four pages, rejoined at the spine, good condition.
